Rainiers on TV

With the M’s playing a Saturday afternoon game, there’s no TV today, but you can watch the next best thing something even better – the Rainiers make their television debut tonight. Tune into Comcast Sportsnet (channel 179 on most Comcast Digital Systems, I’m told) at 7 pm for the action. The venerable Mike Curto will be calling the game along with Doug Sisk, who I’ve never heard of, but probably isn’t as awesome as Curto. David Pauley goes for the Rainiers, while Brad Mills pitches for Las Vegas.

Member of 1986 Mets WS team as a reliever. Also played for Twins. Born in Tacoma.

I vaguely remember Doug Sisk, too…though I never knew he was from Tacoma.

I’m surprised one of those really sucky M’s teams from the late-80’s didn’t pick him late in his career when he was old and burned out.

I wish Comcast would come to their senses and charge a reasonable carriage rate to DIRECTV for their Sportsnet NW channel. There is NO way I leave DIRECTV’s vastly superior sports lineup and HD picture for Comcast. Right now, I’m watching the Mariners all-time leader in Wins, Jamie Moyer, deceive men half his age with 80 mph fastballs. The Mariners current pitching staff could learn much from watching him work.

Or you can forget about our crappy minor league system for a night and watch the Cougs play online. 🙂

I don’t get that channel, unfortunately – apparently the $117 I pay Comcast every month isn’t enough to offer it.

Yeah, on DISH myself. Crap. Actually, should have just gone to the game tonight. Can’t beat the weather.
